About Cheryl
Cheryl McNeil is a licensed clinical professional counselor with 27 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, relationship strains, and grief. She listens closely and aims to make sessions straightforward and useful for everyday life. She uses a flexible, client-centered approach that responds to each person’s needs.
Cheryl draws on practical methods to help people notice patterns, build coping skills, and make choices that match their values.
Background and approach
Conversations are direct and grounded in real problems rather than jargon. Her background includes work with a personal company, a Job Corps program, and a community mental health center. That variety brought experience with people at different life stages and with different challenges, including trauma, addiction, mood disorders, and career stress.
Cheryl emphasizes acceptance of one’s situation while also supporting change when it’s wanted. She helps people weigh options, practice new behaviors, and take small steps toward goals. Sessions often focus on skills that can be used between meetings.
She also addresses blended family issues, codependency, infidelity, multicultural concerns, and workplace stress. Cheryl has worked with people managing self-harm thoughts, bipolar and disruptive mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. Her aim is practical progress that fits a person’s life and values.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without being ruled by them and then take actions that match what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, stress, anger, and life transitions by focusing on values and small, steady steps. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the persons experience in the moment, with the therapist offering empathy and nonjudgmental listening to help clarify feelings and choices. This approach can help with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and emotional healing.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then adapt methods over time. That collaboration makes it easier to try techniques and keep what works while changing what does not.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video allows face-to-face conversation for detailed discussions. Phone sessions can be an easier option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat are useful for brief updates, working through homework, or steady support between scheduled sessions. These options make it possible to attend sessions from different locations and to choose formats that fit work, family, or travel schedules.
